Graded VG-EX 4 by Global Authentication Inc. The Hall of Fame third baseman, George Kell, is featured on this 1948 Leaf Baseball SP card. Not only is this a scarce short print and Hall of Famer but also just happens to be Kell’s primary rookie card. There is mild wear on the corners and the subject is off-center, about 90/10 toward the north of the card. The back displays a small area of printers’ lines but is otherwise clean. Overall, this is a very nice HOF rookie card and a short print to boot.
